Topic: mdb-select search cannot use arrow keys to select

aungkohein pro asked 5 years ago


Hi!

I realized that I'm unable to use arrow keys to select from dropdown, when i'm using searchable.

Is there any alternative?

Here in Select2 we are able to do that: https://select2.org/searching

Thank you!

I've just checked and I'm able to use arrow keys on searchable Material Select. Maybe I'm missing something? How can we reproduce your issue?

Hi @Bartłomiej Malanowski,

If you go to https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/jquery/forms/select/ Under Select with search box section > enter "U" and press down arrow, it will not select USA. You would need to use mouse click to select the value.

My users prefer using down arrow key to select the value. =)

Now I get it! I've added this idea to our TODO list so I hope we'll add it in the future
